Working in IT for a company of around 200 UK people so there are only two of us, my manager and myself. This means my job covers a wide range, network management, intranet development, programming, database management, first, second and third level support depending upon problem. Basically I do everything IT related bar reports (I do a few mind). What really pisses me off though, is that out sales force have decided the ideal day to all pile into the office and have there sodding meetings is now a Friday. Most of the time I love my job but Fridays have become a "where's my icon gone?", "how can I copy this file?", "I forgot my password!", "here's my laptop, fix it!", "wipe my bottom, I can't find it with both hands". Day. Worse though is they recently moved all the offices around and where did they decide was the best place to put ALL the docking stations? Right next to my office! So they are popping in and out about once a minute. Gets on my tits. |

Registered 20 years agoWorking in IT would be so much more fun if you could make examples of the really dumb users; the ones who do the big wallpaper, try to send 50 meg attachments, download "funny" programs from the net, spill coffee on their keyboards, decide to rearrange their office every couple of days and always put the PC miles away from any network or power points.
By make example of I mean shoot and leave their heads on poles outside the building.

Well, whilst my colleagues and I were waiting for him to finish faffing around, he said to some bloke who was in our office "I have 3 beautiful women waiting for me", at which point we all did the sticking fingers down throat gestures. So he probably would find it cute. I hate him. I really do.

Whizzo, I like your suggestion.

You could try throwing rotten vegetables at him.
That usually works as a hint.
Either that or it's forks in his eyes; as it's lunch they'll be easily available. -

My tip. Eat a whole bunch of dried fruit throughout the morning, then let off one of those nasty "green goblin" farts that women seem immensely talented at letting rip...
I think I must've been evil in a previous life because we've now got our own version of "Mr Sea Cucumber Tongue" here who has sort of latched on to me as "the only civil person who knows anything about PHP" - not only does he share the same tongue as Mr Sea, but he carries around various sweaty looking old bottles of Evian (topped up with tap water) which he freezes in our works freezer, then carries around for the rest of the day, sipping from the neck like a baby chugging on one of Jordan's saggy balloons.
That's before we get to his undulating bogey problem. He's got a beard (quelle fucking surprise here!), which has gone grey and white, and a tache - and bogies get stuck in the tache (because he's seemingly incapable of LEAVING HIS FUCKING NOSE ALONE FOR 2 SECONDS) and sort of blow back and forth merrily as he breathes...
Now picture having to sit with this person teaching them the finer points of authentication scripting...
